Web Of Reality
By Paul Wilson


The night screams
lonely dreams
searching…searching
for compliance
or reality it seems

Be gone I say
the web you weave
the pain you leave
saying you really care

(imagine that if you would)

Each night
tempting me all the while
with your innocent smile
darkness calls
me to you

Dreams are for lovers
and little children I’m told
alone each night no one to hold
save your charms for one
that begs your call

The line of reason marks
my doom
dreams of realities gloom
I’ll play your game
I’ll pay the price

I dreamed till dawn...
broke the spell
you weaved your web so well
I paid the price
now return to hell

The place bad dreams dwell

Paul,
There is only one thing I am sure of and that is that things change. Happy dreams next time.

Paul, wow, its been a long time since I read here, and this is so strong. Everyone has grown since I have been here, it seems. I have these same thoughts, but you wrote them well.

Bad dreams make the good dreams seem all the sweeter!

Gosh, you caused a few of my less than desirable ones come to the fore!

Sweet Dreams, Dear Poet!

Ahh, very nice I can relate to the feeling of being tangled in love's web. Kudos!

the web you weave
